And the Italians rose as one goomba and shouted va fa 'n culo

"NY Italian Community Furious After Mamdani Omits Little Italy From NYC Immigrant Neighborhood Map".

On the other hand, the map does helpfully identify some places that you might want to avoid (Little Haiti, Little Pakistan, Little Senegal, etc.).

  1. He should have just had a map emblazoned with "Collection of Third World Ghettos" and left it at that.

  2. The thing is, the Little appellation started with Little Italy.
    All the other Littles came from that.
    Another funny thing is stuff like Little Mogadishu is meant disparagingly.
    As in, Don't go there, it might as well be Little Mogadishu.

    1. Yeah, I'm thinking that "Little Senegal" is code for "Be grateful it ain't the actual Senegal".

  3. Seems like there are no Irish or Jewish enclaves in NYC anymore. Or maybe it's because there aren't many commie votes in those areas.
